I can really understand your reaction, I think that you are making a valid point, it used to bother me. I have stopped looking at the numbers myself it's just the best way for me to handle it. In my experience some people who read but do not reply are helped by certain posts, I have received a few pms expressing this to me. In the end you have to do what is best for you, maybe ignoring the numbers is a good option for you but I don't think that you are overreacting because you are sharing some very personal things and I can see how a person would be bothered by people reading but not responding.
